The Devil Inside

Good news is Kent was back on the track, doing laps, impressive scar and beard. JKH and Salem didn't do much, Dawes was in hands of rehab guys. Oscar Mc and Hunt also seemed to do short session, so did Tyson and Garland, means nothing these days. Jetta and Viney did whole session and then worked with fitness guys on running, Nev said both were being hammered by fitness staff so they could step straight back in. Most of the drills today were about ball movement again, Roos and Goodwin were very very very vocal today. They actually thought Fitzy had broken his neck at the weekend, did have a bit of tingling in limbs, was impressed by the duty of care shown by everybody, had scans, everything is fine, did whole session. Stood right next to Watts and Bail who were having a goal kicking comp for the prize of a coffee, Watts said nearest the middle of the goal and then proceeded to drill it through the middle from 50, Bail put his through as well but slightly to the left. Any questions feel free, have put a few pics on Twitter Demonpk.

Agreed, and as I have put about 5 times, Howie gave it one second of thought and said NO

Sorry I have been offline since yesterday and didn't see that post, I will go as far as saying it was Wiseblood altering one of my posts, seems to enjoy doing that, of course from behind the safety of his keyboard

Think he has an injury issue, spent some time with physios at training, as I reported

You seem to know all about it Princess, actually it was a Psychology site, defunct now but there is a link that points to Demonland, as per the quote in Fawlty Towers, "there is enough for a whole conference"

I didn't bother asking, you never get the truth during the season, tried an experiment just before the first round, asked three different people and got three different answers

No, I had a quick chat to him post the stairs, said he was feeling great, and he looked it, if Brayshaw has signed, I think Petracca will as well, haven't seen him since, trains inside at the moment and does the Anderson St walk with Trenners

He had the six weeks off, don't know whose suggestion it is, might be Nev himself, as I said might The whole ruck division was present and correct, including Fitzpatrick and Pedersen working with Greg Stafford, but not Dawes

From what he said they may trial it, Roh Bail went through exactly the same thing, so the medicos have a base of knowledge to work from, he is not letting it get to him, there was another supporter I know who was at training today and she was getting the yearbook signed, Nev made a good play on how the concussion is affecting him whilst signing it, going as far as to deny he was in it, as he didn't remember getting the photo taken

When he signs, I will forgive him for nearly knocking me down the stairs in the Ponsford, the pictures on Instagram do not do justice to what we have done to his physique already

As I have said before, if you have any talent in this area, the club are always on the lookout for help, gratis of course, just out of interest have you ever put a website together?....I have

It doesn't matter., gave you chance for a cheap shot at the club

It says set to sign, on the AFL website and there is no Petracca announcing it on Twitter so perhaps the ink is not dry yet

Had a good chat to him, being directed by the medicos, is a dad with two young kids and if you have read anything about him, they come first, so doesn't want his health impacted, you may see him appear in a helmet, the last belt was the worst, if you look at the Howie mark, Nev wore Howie's knee right between the eyes

Missing were Petracca, Trengove, Frost, Kent, no shows JKH Viney ran laps, Dawes did as well before joining in the session Bit of running and agility work to warm up first Lot of ground ball work Then a bit of full length field ball movement, sides mixed Nev Jetta not available this week Jayden Hunt pulled up really well from his first hit out Few in the hands of the physios during the session, vandenBerg, Newton, Dawes, Hogan (not unusual) Pics on Twitter Demonpk

Coz I speak to people, don't necessarily put it all on here, because frankly some posters don't deserve it For your info both Hames and King were given one year rookie contracts Of course Georgiou is a different case, he doesn't fit into your argument

If it helps the 'experts' on here, both Nev Jetta and JKH rated him as a player with a very big upside

You won't see anything, Dom Barry said he was looking at having another crack, the decision is not his alone, the Club has been supporting him and has provided him with dietary and fitness help

So Greg Stafford is wasting all the time on him then, he is actually playing forward because they think that will be more benefit till he gets another pre season into him, but he is learning the craft of rucking never the less, I asked These days Rookies don't necessarily get the two years, Alex Georgiou anyone? Gawn's knees don't give way, he has had a couple of injuries with the ligaments, like a lot of players Roos does have confidence in him, Jamar wasn't out of form, but Roos and the match committee had no hesitation in bringing Spencer in, against Sydney of all teams, it's only the "experts" on here who don't Simplistic enough for you (Neanderthal, the young gentleman who cut my hair last time, told me I had a beautifully shaped head)

I'll make sure I tell Spence that next time I speak to him, before you rabbit on, you need to remember I speak to the players, so I asked why he wasn't getting a run in the NAB Cup, at the same time as asking Terlich and Riley and was told that their fitness levels were not ready for game time, we do things properly now, as to why Riley has been banging on the door, because of his late start, they think he probably needs another game or two before consideration I forgot you watch the game for mistakes and nothing else

Love your input, Spencer didn't play in the NAB cup coz he wasn't at the required level of fitness after a couple of issues pre season, same as Terlich and Riley He also played against Sydney and Roos made a point of saying he went all right

No, he has just been out of form, starting to look a bit better last weekend for Casey,, McCartney rides him at training constantly

Greg Stafford doesn't agree with you Stuie, I know because I asked him, problem we have is all are at different stages of development and career, hence other post about setting up competition between Spencer and Jamar to push both, me I think it will benefit Spencer and may signal the end for Jamar

Not me chap, Roos gave Spencer a 2 year contract, and we still have Jamar and Gawn (who has stalled at the moment, but he can return to form), I just find some of the suggestions hilarious King, by the way, if we can build him properly has the natural footy ability to be one of the best ruckman MFC has seen in years, big call I know, but reason he was given another year on rookie list

Salem absolutely loves playing on the half back flank, and he is good there and will get even better, we will have a bigger and stronger Petracca to put into the midfield next year
